It was great to see my friends at MGA Entertainment at the Toy Fair. It was also great to hear that they had received three awards this year.
The world’s largest private toy company, has won three awards from NPD Group, Inc. for having the best products in a US toy category. MGAE’s Little Tikes brand had two winners — Cozy Coupe 30th Anniversary Edition received the best toy award in non-pedal ride on toys and the Jump ‘N’ Slide Bouncer won best in playground equipment. The Lalaloopsy Babies won best toy in the “other dolls and accessories” category.
I was so happy to review two of this year’s products that are going to be hits with your children.
Moxie Girlz Poopsy Pets are anything but ordinary. Kids can take them on an imaginative adventure complete with whimsical pets that poop — so cute! Kellan has a pet tiger who poops striped eggs, Lexa has an elephant that poops peanuts, and Avery has a pet panda who poops bamboo shoots! It’s a great way to teach kids how to manage pet “clean up,” with a laugh!
Now, you may be thinking, “but what about the boys?” Never fear, we’ve got one more treat that takes pooping toys to a whole new level. Our Little Tikes Big Dog Truck ride-on & walker is the coolest dog on the block! The Big Dog Truck comes with boulders that can be scooped up at the front of the truck when your toddler rides over them, and then dumped out the rear. But don’t just take our word for it — The Big Dog Truck has been awarded Dr. Toy’s 2014 Best Picks, Toy Talk Awards’ Best Preschool Toy, and ToyTesters TV Gold Award for Best Preschool Toy.
Disclosure Many thanks to MGA Entertainment for providing the products in exchange for this review and post, however all opinions expressed here are my own.
I will have to really take a close look at the poopsy pets! Although the 4-5 year olds love the poop category I am not so sure of the clean up educational angle.
What great toy ideas for kids! I know just who to pass this along to.
